That does not look like a 100% infill indeed.
Are you sure your setting is at 100%? looks like 50
When using cura? it should be on the basic tab -> Fill density (%) 100.
Otherwise it is under-extrusion, In the bottom of the basic tab, check if flow is at 100% and the diameter around 2.85.
If that is correct, check/clean your nozzle and feeder.

Octoprint is a great way to do remote printing. I hear. doodle3d also.
Someone spent at least a month of hard work creating prontrface. I'd rather daid work on new stuff then have him duplicating prontrface. I suggest you try it. It's free. It will print all your Cura generated gcode. It has lots of great options. There are other software as wel that's free like repetier host that also visualizes the currently being printed trace in 3d:
printrun/pronterface/prontrface download:
http://koti.kapsi.fi/~kliment/printrun/
Check.. Thanks!!
downloaded it, as a non nerd, I managed to do that and even tried it (without a printerattached, but with a dry gcode file)
.Now we only need something or a way to use that print interface screen instead of the implemented one in Cura 14.03, I guess? and everyone happy again
Would be nice if someone could give that a try, and document it a little for me and xeno and many others...
everbody happy again?

chips.. might post it in this topic as well :shock:

I use the "pause at height" plugin in Cura for that, never needed to do it on the fly while printing .........
Hi Harold,
give it try!
works well to make 10 coulour prints, for instance, pause the print, to fill something with sand, without something hitting your spoon.... -
Anybody in for good news :rolleyes: ?
Tried it this morning after reading some 14.03 Printmenu Posts and Usb printing works again!!!!
In my case that was a few cura versions ago. Did not care to much for making a big study of it, since I have a Ulticontroller aswell.
Using the USB cable is more convenient when printing a lot of smaller prints, then swapping the SD card every time.
@Xeno, when cooled down a little
You might want to reconsider the investment in a Ulticontoller, buying it was my best Upgrade ever!.
Being able to switch on the TL light above the desk while printing again, without a ruined print for Instance.
Switching of the UM1 with the powerswitch kills the blue LED.
Haven't seen the latest printinterfaces, but adjusting the flow on the fly is a big pro for me.
Changing filament while printing, with a push on the button!
Without swearing and yelling, not only you are a lot younger and some taller as I am
, but more because it does not work that way.I hope it doesn't feel like a burden to you, but be aware there are still people out here who want to use a printer for printing. For you, sites like Github and such are a second nature, but for most people it's a nightmare.
So I understand Xeno's frustration a bit, (iets genuanceerder mag wel), but a lot of people rely on you guys at Ultimaker to give them usable tools to work with.
I don't mind waiting for updates, but please we need you guys to keep track of all plugins, scripts and .py shit to implement in cura (Like you did with TweakAtZ).
Regards Kees
prettig weekend!

In the Ulticontroller Tune menu you could choose the change filament option, does the same, only it will retract aprox 6cm of filament as well, don't forget to extract it again by hand!!!.
And be careful with the printhead, because it does not 'lock'!
Does it Lock on the UM2?

Hi,
Pushing down the white clamp, while pulling the tube, should work for getting the tube out.
Might need some force, Bowden tube might be grooved from the Bite
The metal teeth 'Bite' only when you or the filament pull the tube.
Pushing in should go easy, don't forget the 'horseshoe' to keep the clamp up.
You might need the alankey (screw)driver to guide the tube in the white Teflon hole, Does not always line-up perfectly.

Hi Guys,
Reading this topic about P.I.D. values, power and temperatures, makes me wonder.
I'm working with a lot of different UM originals lately, and I was wondering why aprox. half of them can't keep up the temperature to 225/230 when the original 'Origami' fan kicks in.
Could It be there where some changes in parts specifications or those Firmware PID settings you refer to, in the last couple of months?
Reading this topic gives me the idea it might be possible to change those settings in the ulticontroller to get more power to the hotend?
Any of you walking encyclopaedia, knows if its possible, safe and witch ones to change.
Regards Kees

inderdeed, leuk!

Today, I successfully implemented above mentioned code. On my Marlin fork, you can now find the implementation of individually (means per extruder) adjustable flow rate. Be aware that new adjustment factors were introduced (as described above).
This is the path to my fork: https://github.com/Dim3nsioneer/Marlin If someone wants to test the new code but needs assistance, please feel free to send me a PM. A pull-up to the official Marlin version has been issued.
There is also an experimental version of the TweakAtZ plugin which uses the new possibility: https://github.com/Dim3nsioneer/Cura-Plugins/raw/master/TweakAtZ.3.1.2_IEF.py
OMG
. The first serious direct answer on one of my questions/requests.Thanks!!!
Looks impressive
.I will give it a try, when I've figured out how to get it in my printer...
The answer on, How to?, will be here on the forums I guess.

Hey guys!!!! OMG OMG OMG it finally arrived and I finally get to post my happy corner picture!! I was this close to photoshopping a picture of the printer into a photo :mrgreen:.
Woohw................ Aaron,
Congratulations with the UM2 Birth!!!!
Hope it was worth the waiting.... :wub:

An other bing improvement for printing with dual is to add the possibility to stop the ooze shield and the prime tower at the last layer used for dual extrusion (to not wast material). And second (depend of the first) improvement for PVA is to stop to heat the second extruder at this same last layer to not carbonise the pva.
Tweak AtoZ should do that job?
-
I have an idea how to implement individual flow multipliers directly in Marlin (see http://umforum.ultimaker.com/index.php?/topic/3580-flow-rate-adjustment-ulticontroller/&do=findComment&comment=40780)... I hope I can realise a first version soon.
Cant wait to give it try
, Would be nice to try and get some decent clean dual colour prints out.Combining materials and using support Pva works fine.
I have the cura support not under control yet, but drawing your own and use it like you would use a second colour , is a good workaround for now.

Hi All,
The corner could use some reorganization and cleaning up :roll:
But I guess the shirt counts for 2 stickers? :wink:

Hi Xeno,
here in Tilburg we have Piet Knowledge on the Korvelseroad, ( A.k.a. Piet Kennis), most electronic shops will have them I guess, or Conrad?.
Take care with the dimensions. Check for yourself on the counter, or the datasheet online.
Some confusion.. 40mm FanHole, 40 mm Oustside square, 40mm square boltpattern?
Took me two ride's to get the right ones :(..

Hi.
Running a UM2 might give you a different layout but for Um org. it is in the basic tab at the bottom left.
It's easier to turn up the Flow on the ulticontroller and see what happens. If It is a UM1.

Not my happy corner.
But for sure A HAPPY corner

Well, since making outdoor lights, I can tell you some things, I found out....
Not all pla's are sunlight resistant, after some months they might turn pale.
Don't use black or dark coloured pla, even in the sparse dutch sunlight it gets to hot and becomes soft.
Moisture gets in between the layers, so turns green after a while.
What works for me is to put your product in a varnish? Colourless paint for a day.

Hi..
Until now did not have any trouble with diameters ( or I did not notice them
) Difference from one roll to the other is easy corrected with changing the flow on the fly.
I am more concerned in the material itself. Would like to see some better coding of the material.
Even when buying PLA from the same supplier, you never now what you get until you try it, perhaps buying 10 rolls at once might help to be sure it's the same batch, but I only need 1 a month :(.
Would be nice if it was more standardized, like steel, or industrial plastics, so you know what you buy.
For example I use a 2.3Kg roll of grey PLA, for almost a year now, and still flexible. from the same supplier some white pla rolls, brake overnight while in the printer?

Great Stone! Nice Movie!!
wich recording software did you use?

Donderdag met UMII naar de Kaasfabriek in Alkmaar geweest
We waren behoorlijk onder de indruk van wat de mannen daar hebben neergezet. Een aantal zeecontainers gestapeld
en daar een studio met 3D apparatuur ingebouwd.
Men heeft ons aardig op weg geholpen met de settings van de printer. Zodra er een workshop voor de UMII wordt gehouden zijn we van de partij. De Kaasfabriek is een echte aanrader voor allerlei 3D systemen
PS maar waarom is er geen Nederlands afdeling op forum International ?
Groetjes Lia en Ron
Hoi,
Ik ben voor een Nederlandse afdeling hier
!Tot die tijd kun je evt https://www.facebook.com/groups/Allesmaker/ hier ook terecht.

Morning all,
I could not find a right place to put this.
Found this site, Downloadable Honda car models.
Perhaps some of you like it.

First thing.. SANDER.. does exist !! I have seen him.. his shadow stretches 10 meters in every direction.
His beard carries god like powers.. his stare... melts women to butter...... HEHEHEH LOL :wink:
About the sticker.. very cool !! where or what are you going to honour with it ?
Ian :smile:
Tadaaaaa drumrollll....
Found a place in the Stonefactory
Did not stick it on though, when project is done they return to Ultimaker H.Q. , where they have enough stickers I guess.
-
true... pinch him into a corner tonight and say... WHERES THE STICKERS MATE !!!
LOLL
Ian :smile:
ps. have brilliant fun tonight !!
Found one!!! :cool:
Sander might still be only virtual though, did not see him around.
But I had to ask one of the Founding Fathers (Erik) for it.
He warned me to be careful with it, might become a collectors item
the first release.He had to dig deep in his briefcase, not to many around yet. A shame I almost fainted..... should have asked for a autograph....

Are the outer walls of the prints, sides top bottom, looking fine?
Only a bad infill?
